Shmem device support property role with 'master'(master=on) or
'peer'(master=off, default mode), which controls to copy the
shared memory on migration to the destination host or not. see
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob_plain;f=docs/system/ivshmem.rst;hb=HEAD


The 1st patch add attribute 'role', it based on Martin's old patch
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-September/msg00536.html

The 2nd patch remove shmem name check in migraiton, which
allows user change shared memory path on destination host.

v3 -> v2:
  1. Correct description of shmem ‘role’ attribute. If there is any
     mistake in the description, please show me. Sorry for my poor
     English :)
  2. Remove the inappropriate suggestion in migration log.
  3. allow shmem name change in migration, instead add a new
     'mem-path' attribute.

v2 -> v1:
  Fix ivshmem testcases failure.
